Mizuno - Women's Wave Nirvana 7 Running Shoes - White/Blue
Mizuno's flagship supportive trainer combines lightweight support and cushioning in an awesome package, now updated with New Smoothride Technology.
Mizuno Wave technology offers cushioning at heel strike and perfect support to maintain correct foot biomechanics for the moderate to severe over pronator.
Mizuno research into Biomechanical differences in gender has resulted in the Wave Nirvana 7 running shoes being perfectly set up for a woman's running Gait.
It also features removable ortholite sockliner designed to compliment the cushioning in the trainer whilst remaining lightweight.
Mizuno use a supportive wave that starts low on the lateral (outside) of the trainer which gradually fans out and raises in height towards the medial (inside) side.
The lateral side of the wave provides shock absorption at heel strike working with the VS1 to dissipate shock. As the foot rolls in it comes into contact with progressively more support keeping the foot in a neutral position.
Mizuno wave is the only running technology that combines support and cushioning.
The Wave Nirvana 7 also features two key Mizuno developed technologies; AP+ and NEW Dynamotion Fit (see below).
NEW SMOOTHRIDE
Analysis of forefoot transition shows that for the smoothest, most effiecient ride runners require shoes that flex easily at first and then become less flexible for an energy efficient toe off. To create a shoe with variable forefoot flex Mizuno has invented a control system which allows the shoe and the foot to flex easily at first and then restricts flexibility during the toe off phase.
The result is an extremely smooth and energy efficient transition which means a more effortless and enjoyable ride.
AP+ MIDSOLE
With AP+, Mizuno has engineered a midsole polymer that provides fantastic cushioning mile after mile. Runners will actually see the benefit of AP+ in the increased durability of the midsoles, but more importantly, they will feel the benefit every time they take to the road.
A high-tech formulation using multiple polymer types gives AP+ its exceptional performance in terms of cushioning durability, increased rebound and springy feel. Extensive testing has shown that even after 600km of running, the cushioning performance of AP+ stays close to its maximum. Other polymers lose a high proportion of their cushioning properties quite early in their lifetime. But AP+ retains 80% if its cushioning, even after 600km, keeping that fresh out of the box feel. Comfort is accentuated by the unique rebound properties of AP+ which gives it its springy feel.
With every impact, AP+ recovers more quickly and more completely than standard
midsole polymers giving the shoe a spring which makes for a fantastic ride.
DYNAMOTION FIT
Dynamotion Fit is all about creating a shoe that works with the skin and muscles of the foot. Stretching where necessary, supporting where needed, and generally matching the
